Ummm... "new" driver is a bit strong given the fact that you changed less than 5 % of the lines in the driver.
Sorry, I made a mistake for the another driver.
May I ask you to submit your changes as a proper patch, with expla- nations which problems you are fixing and why you change the code the way you change it?
Changes are: 1. Disable "wait for auto-negotiation process" in rtl_init() to reduce the setup time. 2. Delete TX/RX buffer copy to increase performance. 3. virt_to_bus() to phys_to_bus() for PPC user 4. Code clean up
